Five stars! Sea shell tour with Mike. - We were with Mike. He checked in with us the day before and gave us a weather report. He said it looked good for our trip the following day. He was waiting for us when we arrived. Mike had waters iced up for us. He took us to two private beaches to search for shells. The kids had a blast and found great shells. We even saw some sea turtles. I would highly recommend Mike and this tour. If you want to go fishing, he also does fishing excursions. Five stars!!!!

Great way to see the coast line and find pretty shells! - Fun experience for all ages! Captain Mike was great. We went to two locations perfect for finding beautiful shells. Be sure to wear beach gear and footwear that can get wet and bring sunscreen, there isn’t much shade on the boat so you will be in direct sunlight for all of the tour. If you are looking for some time on the water and searching for pretty shells, I recommend this tour!

Amazing Shelling Tour - Mike made our shelling tour unforgettable! He took us to several beautiful beaches, helping my kids find stunning shells. His accommodating nature and expert knowledge were impressive. The highlight was when he followed a manatee because my girls were fascinated by it. This unexpected encounter added extra excitement to our trip. Mike was a fantastic guide, making the experience fun and memorable. Highly recommend this tour!

Dolphins, manatee, and shells - a beautiful outing - Mike was very cordial. I am so glad he accommodated us with about 12 hours notice. The shelling was fun - it was high tide so I guess we didn't see any of the big shells. What was amazing was the boat ride. Mike spotted dolphins, and then slowly approached them, and teased them into following in our wake for a few miles. We watched 5 dolphins jumping alongside the boat. That was wonderful! He also spotted a manatee, and quietly drew alongside it to watch it come up for air. We made two beach stops on Old Hickory, I believe. A very nice 2 hour outing.

Relaxing and amazing experience - Highly recommend - Capt Mike found so many dolphins and got them playing in the wake, amazing experience. He brought us to really cool spots to find a plethora of shells! Definitely booking with Captain Mike next time we visit!

Lovely afternoon on a boat - Captian Mike knew all the best shelling spots and gave us a great afternoon on his boat. He got a family of dolphins to give us a show next to the boat which the kids loved!

You should hire Mike! - Captain Mike was awesome. He was generous with his time after my scheduling mishap and very knowledgeable. Also a pleasure to talk to.

So many shells! - Had a really fun couple of hours hunting for shells on Big Hickory and Bonita Springs Beach. Found the biggest shells of our trip (to multiple beaches including Sanibel, Captiva, Lovers Key, and Boca Grande) and our only sand dollar too. Got to watch a shark hunting in the shallows too which was fun and made for a great "Jaws" photo. Highly recommended!

Great shells, great day! - We had a great shelling experience with Mike. Communication before the trip was excellent so we knew exactly where to be and when. Upon arrival it was a quick 10-15 minutes to the first beach on Big Hickory Island. It was close to low tide and we were able to find a sand dollar and multiple fighting conch shells in excellent shape along with a great variety of other shells. We spent about 45 minutes there and then chose to move to the next area just a few minutes north on the point at Bonita Springs Beach where we found more good stuff. On our way back we were lucky enough to spot a shark cruising in the shallows - got the perfect "Jaws" shot! We visited multiple beaches this trip (Sanibel, Captive, Boca Grande) and got our biggest shells on this excursion. Highly recommend.

Great Experience for a Family - Captain Mike was a great tour guide filled with information as we sailed away. We enjoyed the show that he was able to attract for miles. It was beautiful, then we saw manatees . We stopped at a beach filled with so many shells, that was fun as we had way too many to choose from lol but we have a beautiful collection to take home. We did some snorkeling, that was ok because the water wasn’t clear enough to really see much. It’s not like Hawaii but again we enjoyed being able to do it. Thank you Captain Mike. My family and I really enjoyed it.
